==Orphan pages==
Orphan pages, particularly orphan stubs, have become a real problem at Conservapedia. [https://conservapedia.com/Special:LonelyPages] When creating new content, please follow these Guidelines: [[Conservapedia:Guidelines#Article_length]]. Stub pages (pages with less than 300 words), and particularly uncategorized stubs, orphaned stubs, stubs with few or no outgoing links have the detrimental effect of lowering our Google rankings. To avoid an accidental deletion during a routine cleanup of the server, when creating a stub, please integrate your new article into the whole wiki by de-orphaning it, adding a Category, and have a few good quality external links. Thank you. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|Free Kyle!]]</sup> 15:04, September 15, 2021 (EDT)

== Offline Conservapedia archive discussion ==
I've undertaken an effort to create an offline archive of Conservapedia in OpenZim format that can be used for any of the following:
* Homeschool parents who want to give their kids access without opening them up to the rest of the internet.
* People in rural (homesteaders) or remote areas (missionaries) with little or no internet access.
* Preppers who are trying to keep archives of important data in case the access to the internet is lost or severely censored.
I'm using the <code>mwoffliner</code> tool but I discovered that the version of Mediawiki running on the site needs to be updated for compatibility with that tool. I went ahead and created a clone of Conservapedia on my home computer using the latest version on Docker. As I started to archive the site with <code>mwoffliner</code> there are a few pages that I stumbled upon that had issues causing errors with the archival. I would like to offer my help to the community at large with contributing back these corrections and to share the finished ZIM file when it is ready. Is there anyone who would like to join me in this effort? It would be especially helpful if someone could help by upgrading the site from the current version of 1.24.2 to 1.36.1 or later. I'm willing to pitch in if needed.
Thanks!
